The oxide sidewall-spacer technology was utilized to fabricate CMOS/SOS devices with the self-registered gradually doped source drain extension structure. No additional photo masking or ion implantation steps are required than in the case of a conventional polysilicon gate CMOS/SOS process. The devices revealed significant improvements in the breakdown voltage, leakage current and the short channel effect.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
